[00:13.00]1 - Insight ]
[00:20.72]Let me take some time out to reminisce on the past
[00:23.14]Name plates on your belts, pagers beeping in class
[00:25.56]Teachers teaching after speaking,
[00:26.93]seeing we leave in a flash
[00:27.96]Beats are beating in my headphones
[00:29.37]and I'm down on some cash
[00:30.63]Not enough to buy a truck but what i needed was less
[00:32.98]Heard the about tape by see indeed it was fresh
[00:35.54]I got that, i got this, i reminisce on a smile
[00:37.82]Splicing a??? set together or head in a pile
[00:40.36]Innocent child, quiet and cool, i draw in school
[00:42.90]Brought my pages markers, mazes, markers and rulers,
[00:45.27]Meditating like a Buddhist, animating through my music
[00:47.95]Demonstrating what I'm doing as i calculated movement
[00:50.34]Celebrating, elevating, levitating you through it
[00:52.71]So you could to a few trips have some beautiful tunes
[00:55.23]Mr. Plants who caught me writing
[00:57.17]He ripped up the page,
[00:57.91]once he saw me at a show and i had ripped up the stage
[01:00.32]Its like that y'all
[01:18.75]Its like that, Insight, and I'm having a ball.
[01:20.11]I grew up in the city, played ball in the park
[01:22.46]Love being (?????) in popular landmarks
[01:24.98]I used to go beyond the trains and play arcade games
[01:27.60]Street fighter had me good, Ryu could shoot out a flame
[01:29.92]When i was like 7 i was spending my last buck
[01:32.35]What i wanted was a quarter for the train i took
[01:34.85]I had to walk but hey, it was cool back then
[01:37.22]I got older got around and got scooped up by friends
[01:39.71]Wasn't a tax paying citizen i had no plan
[01:42.18]My pops used to pick me up in an old blue van
[01:44.67]I know he noticed that my friends had an unusual strut
[01:47.61]\"who's the kid with the big jacket and funny haircut?\"
[01:49.76]That's Adonas, he came to pick up on Maxwell
[01:52.20]He rap well, i didn't rap just to rebel.
[01:54.76]I propel to excel in fidels of (???)
[01:57.03]Rebels repel, i foretell on doing well...
[02:05.34]\"Do you remember how it was when we were not who we are?
[02:07.21]when people didn't think we would get this far?\"
[02:14.99]\"straight from the black-alack, comes the acrobatic,
[02:17.27]and you were saying i would never be phat, remember that?!\"
[02:19.61]Time passed by started getting some gigs
[02:21.85]The world sorta seemed smaller before it seemed big
[02:24.46]Some people thought i was wasting my time
[02:26.95]Caught it back
[02:26.82]and still don't even realize that what i was making was magic
[02:29.35]An era that is classic as defined by youth
[02:31.77]Is the immediate ingredient you find in truth
[02:34.21]Im alining the proof
[02:35.44]Designed useful melodies
[02:36.82]Energy that i use fused with ooze of Ecstasy
[02:39.34]My recipe is not a secret
[02:41.20]I speak it
[02:42.07]But some people,
[02:42.53]when i show em still they don't wanna believe it
[02:44.23]Just hold on and keep on reaching
[02:45.87]Open up and let the breeze in
[02:47.13]You could learn from the woods spinning leaves on the trees
[02:49.20]And, now its time for my conclusion
[02:51.32]Shine and keep it moving, improving steady,
[02:53.37]and doing what you're doing
[02:54.23]I express through rhymes mixed clear with fly traps
[02:56.64]So this is dedicated, to Kick Snares and Hi-Hats.
